Enjoy your family summer vacation in Zell am See.

Your family vacation in Zell am See

summer holiday at the Waldhof, your family hotel in Zell am See, makes children`s hearts beat faster. A holiday in the mountains can be so much more than hiking or skiing! And because children and adolescents don’t always enjoy the same leisure activities as their parents, Zell am See- Kaprun has created a comprehensive holiday programme for its younger guests. Young and old are always well looked after – and can enjoy a wide rage of action-packed, fun and relaxing activities.


Summer fun for cool kids

There is an equally exciting and fun holiday programme to entertain youngsters aged between five and 15 from in July & August from Monday to Friday. Two different programmes are available to adventurous kids throughout the entire summer season.

  • “Cool Kids Fun” the offerings include the family day on the Kitzsteinhorn glacier, lama trekking on the trail of gold prospectors, a pirate treasure hunt on Lake Zell or a visit to dragon Schmidolin, the Schmittenhöhe mascot
  • “Cool Kids Adventure” offers action and adventure for children from the age of seven. Physical challenges meet excitement – whether it’s archery, mountain bike training, climbing with professional guides on the training tower or in the climbing hall or a fast-paced combination of hiking and downhill skiing with the Mountain Skyver, a foldable mountain scooter.

As a “Cool Kids” partner hotel – your children enjoy the holiday programmes completely free of charge.


Action and adventure on the mountain

Zell am See-Kaprun of course also offers lots of recreational fun outside of the organised programmes – from swimming, surfing, stand-up paddling or enjoying a boat ride on Lake Zell to a summer toboggan run on the Maiskogel and various hikes and excursions.

On “Schmidolin’s Rocket Bike”, kids aged between six and 14 can test their racing driver skills at Austria’s highest E-Motocross park. Right next to the race track on the Schmittenhöhe is another highlight – the “Schmidolin’s Baptism of Fire” – an adventure trail with tricky stations to test their climbing, balancing and puzzle-solving skills. The Schmiedhofalm adventure playground will also keep younger visitors moving, while the “Mystical Forest” hike on the Sonnkogel promises fabulous experiences for the whole family.


Recreational fun with the Zell am See – Kaprun mobility card
